Sergio039 [100]

Answer:

Sheet metal remaining = 4.1x

cost per square foot of sheet metal = $30

Step-by-step explanation:

Total sheet metal bought = 7.6 ft2

Total sheet metal used = 3.5 ft2

Given equation:

7.6x − 3.5x = 123

Where,

x = cost per square foot

7.6x − 3.5x

Sheet metal remaining = 4.1x

7.6x − 3.5x = 123

4.1x = 123

x = 123 / 4.1

x = $30

Cost per square foot = $30
